also this must be the 10th time gamers are discussing about the same topic with the same views and reasons.

lifesanrpg4579d ago

Kind of like all the BF3/MW3 articles that take up the entire N4G top rotator EVERY day?

DarkBlade46584579d ago

Don't let the pic fool you, there are some great examples in there

VitoGesualdi4579d ago (Edited 4579d ago )

Thx for the love brah

darthv724579d ago (Edited 4579d ago )

but never the less it is all subjective. I'll give you 1 reason why it wont fail. It is fun to play. That may be subjective as well but in the end gaming is all about having fun. If you are having fun playing the games then that is all that should matter.

There will be many who flat out dont like the 3ds just like there are those that dont like the 360 or ps3 or (insert hated console/portable here). Yet there are those that do so it shouldnt matter to those who dont.

We could try and apply the same logic to the ps3 and vita or others but it would just be another wrong trying to make a right.

edit: perhaps you should define success as it pertains to your view. If you judge success by sales then you are closing off other uses of the term. There were lots of games I enjoyed playing on the cube and still do so to me it was a success in entertaining me. I dont expect others to share the same view and I wouldnt try to persuade them either.

VitoGesualdi4579d ago

I mean, would you consider the GameCube a success, merely because it was "fun to play"?

lance424579d ago

I think, more importantly, we should line all of the systems up and see which gives us a boner fastest.

klecser4578d ago

@Vito: Yep, for me it was. I played it in a vacuum devoid of all the fanboy commentary, so the only thing that mattered to me was that I played a ton of games on it that I loved. darthv72 gets it.

Buff10444579d ago

It actually makes some very good points. I approve.

TruthbeTold4579d ago

Yeah, says the guy who himself puts out a 3DS flame bait article every other week. What a friggin surprise...

lance424579d ago (Edited 4579d ago )

It amazes me that people complain about something written every other week, or that there's nothing but articles like this. What would you like to read about? A lot of these writers are trying to use humor and provide a good laugh, or bring a twist to a topic.

Also, can you link another of his articles that are bashing the 3DS? I'd love to read it.

TruthbeTold4579d ago

First of all, while I am tired of these articles, I was talking to 'Buff1044'. He's the one putting out these types of articles every week. In fact, he has a new one out today. Here's a link to another one though since you asked.

Mega Man Legends Composer Wants To Crowdfund The Third Entry

If you're a Mega Man fan, you might remember the cancellation of Mega Man Legends 3 in 2011. While fans were encouraged to show their support for a new entry even after the project had been axed, it's now 2020 and nothing seems to have come of it.

Now, out of the blue, the Mega Man Legends composer Makoto Tomozawa has asked fans on Twitter if they would be up for crowdfunding Mega Man Legends 3.

I'm down for a crowd funding campaign and if this works, hopefully Capcom will open up a crowd funding campaign for Dino Crisis next.

Godmars2901402d ago

And here we go again...(sob!)

Godmars2901402d ago

At this point a fan done remake of either of the first two done in UE4,5 or Unity would likely have more to show before a C&D - and Capcom still wouldn't have done anything towards other than the C&D!

Pancit_Canton1402d ago (Edited 1402d ago )

Sony should back this up like they did with Shenmue 3. The series started on Playstation and it should end on Playstation.

Top 5 Game Franchises that Deserve a New Entry

Establishing a new video game franchise is not easy. You can to create lore, develop strong characters, and continuously craft gameplay that keeps players engaged throughout the series. But some games franchises go dormant, either because their developers or publishers have moved on or simply get canceled. Some games shouldn't remain in the dark, some deserve a new installment. Here are 5 games franchises that deserve a new entry.

I'd love to see a return of Resistance. Once you got over the fact it was supposed to be a "Halo Killer" and just took it at its face value, it was actually a pretty good series. Some ups and downs for sure, but I'd like to see its comeback.

snoopgg1733d ago

Yeah I agree, Iiked that series and want a ps5 return . I wouldn't mind a new Socom and motorstorm.

DaDrunkenJester1733d ago

Yes! I hope sony starts bringing back some more of their competitive online and co-op games.

shuvam091733d ago

I hope they announce a remake first...
Not a lot of people got to experience the series...
And let Bluepoint handle it like the Uncharted collection...
Similar to that collection, the first two games don't hold up by today's standards...

Retroman1733d ago

I'm glad R-TYPE Final 2 coming

PiNkFaIrYbOi1733d ago

The author should just give up on any ME game, Bioware is pretty much horrid these days. So I don't expect anything good to come out of them any time soon.

Necessary Force
Harker
Scalebound

Gimme those and ill be happy forever

UltraNova1832d ago

Now that is one MP game I miss. Bring it on, provided its not messed up with predatory MTs.

KillZallthebeast1832d ago

I loved mag until they patched it so much it was unrecognizable a year later. They gave into people whining.

Kornholic1831d ago

I don't remember them patching it like that. What happened?

KillZallthebeast1831d ago

eventually even prone light machine guns couldn't shoot straight even if you tap the trigger, and assult rifles became basically the only relevant weapon. It's been so long though I don't remember all the details, but it was beyond just that. I still fondly remember it though. Get a squad of 12 friends and you could turn and entire 256 match alone

Some of these games were never played by or released to the public....how do we know they were ever actually good?

Christopher1832d ago

People let their imaginations go and filled in the holes.

anonymousfan1832d ago

I have no clue if scalebound would have been any good... But the game was marketed well enough that I wish it hadn't been cancelled :/ To be fair loads of games that were good and sometimes great were "brought back" and were total disasters (Duke Nukem comes to mind for example).

Godmars2901832d ago (Edited 1832d ago )

By all counts the Scalebound shown at E3s was not what the actual game in development looked like. If such is true, or if the four player co-op thing, then its stronger reason why they canceled it. Why it was so long development before it was.

nitus101832d ago

Having looked at the trailer for Scalebound I was appaled by the cringe-worthy voice acting although from the very limited time watching the battle scenes the game IMHO had potential.

ILostMyMind1832d ago (Edited 1832d ago )

Actually, the trailers were really boring and the demo of the gameplay was crap in performance. The desire for a good game has created a hype campaign in this game.

InKnight7s1832d ago

Versus XIII, MM3, Matrix Online and that Ps3 Superman game.

Germaximus1832d ago

I always wanted to play Matrix Online! Never got a real chance

Deadsinister1832d ago

bring back a new Dino Crisis.
